Description
Archaon is a bit underwhelming in this game considering he is supposed to be Archaon The Everchosen, the Anointed, the favored son of Chaos, Lord of the End Times, Chaos Incarnate, Herald of the Apocalypse, Destroyer of Worlds, Warlord of the forces of Chaos United and the Scourge of the Empire.
He bears the everburning Mark of Chaos.
He wears the armour of Morkar and the Crown of Domination which contains the Eye of Sheerian.
He rides Dorghar, Steed of the Apocalypse and he wields a Chaos Runeshield and the Slayer of Kings, a sword that contains the soul of the daemon U'zhul.

There are other mods that buff Archaon, but they all seem to make him strong enough to take on a 40 stack full of triple gold chevron elite units on his own.
This mod makes him the strongest lord, but not unbeatable.

This mod should be compatible with anything that does not directly alter Archaon.
A mod that alters his special items for example would be compatible.

This mod is savegame compatible.

Constructive criticism is always welcome.

If you use this mod, please like and favorite.

I do agree that Archaon has to be the most powerful legendary lord in the whole game (including warhammer 2 and the future warhammer 3), but overpowered... idk man... Maybe if you find a balance, that can attract more players. I see people frustrated with Archaon on forums everywhere, he needs to be reworked indeed.

@gleen_cross
Well, this mod is actually supposed to make Archaon overpowered.
I like your suggestion concerning his health points though.
Gleen Cross 3 Jan, 2018 @ 12:42pm 
Just a few suggestions... it's possible to raise his "price" using the main_units_table? Man, you have to because this Archaon alone can take the green knight + legendary hero easily, lol Also, about the bonus hit points, you can change to 6650 instead, that will make his final HP to be 6666 =)

I have ported this mod over to Mortal Empires.

lol made me chuckle :) cheers

I decided to create a separate mod that increases the size of Archaon.
If you want the Favored Son of Chaos to be bigger, I recommend you take a look at it.

I thought he was underwhelming as well. When I brought it up some time ago on the forums, I was IMMEDIATELY assailed by those who say "He is fine the way he is" or "No he isnt" ect. Ect. with only very few people who agreed. Funny, its like a tug of war between people who want everything evenly balanced with all LLs having the same level of strength, vrs those who would rather have things in line with the TT and the Lore, and equality be damned. I dont know how many ways I can describe to these people the definition of asymmetrical warfare, and how that is what warhammer is based on, before I just gave up and dealt with it. These guys claim they love realistic tactics and warfare situations, but seem scared shitless of asymmetrical war, which in real life ALL warfare has ALWAYS BEEN. Show ME the historical examples where both sides were evenly matched, with both generals and all offiicers having identical skills...Glad to see I wasnt the only one who noticed this with Archaon.

@Reaver79 Well, that makes no sense at all unless that spear was the Warhammer equivalent of Gungnir.
The dramatic description was mostly for entertainment anyway, but I suppose I will have to change it then.

Think you could resize him also? so he is lore-sized cause I dont think he is in the base game
Reaver79 3 Aug, 2017 @ 9:22am 
His armour was anything but invincible.. The original owner was killed by a thrown hunting spear through the chest..
